Checks for the presence of constructors and lifecycle callbacks without calls to super.

This cop does not consider method_missing (and respond_to_missing?) because in some cases it makes sense to overtake what is considered a missing method. In other cases, the theoretical ideal handling could be challenging or verbose for no actual gain.

Autocorrection is not supported because the position of super cannot be determined automatically.

Object and BasicObject are allowed by this cop because of their stateless nature. However, sometimes you might want to allow other parent classes from this cop, for example in the case of an abstract class that is not meant to be called with super. In those cases, you can use the AllowedParentClasses option to specify which classes should be allowed in addition to Object and BasicObject.

Example:

# bad
class Employee < Person
  def initialize(name, salary)
    @salary = salary
  end
end

# good
class Employee < Person
  def initialize(name, salary)
    super(name)
    @salary = salary
  end
end

# bad
Employee = Class.new(Person) do
  def initialize(name, salary)
    @salary = salary
  end
end

# good
Employee = Class.new(Person) do
  def initialize(name, salary)
    super(name)
    @salary = salary
  end
end

# bad
class Parent
  def self.inherited(base)
    do_something
  end
end

# good
class Parent
  def self.inherited(base)
    super
    do_something
  end
end

# good
class ClassWithNoParent
  def initialize
    do_something
  end
end

Example: AllowedParentClasses: [MyAbstractClass]

# good
class MyConcreteClass < MyAbstractClass
  def initialize
    do_something
  end
end
